Be itkuown that I, Joint E. FINLEY; of Memphis, county of Shelby, andState of Tennessee, have invented a'new and useful Improvetnent in Ghurns; and I do hereby declare that the following-is a full, clear, andexact description of the'construction and operation of the same,reference being hadto the annexed drawings, making apart of thisspecificatiom in which- Figure 1 is a perspective vies,

A, large cog or drive-Wheel; 13, small cog-wheel fastened to the rod D;C, smell cogheel fastened to the tubeE; J, framework} HH,---flanges; G,thilnble; I, key; L L, churn; P, lid of churn; K, cra,nl:; NN,screws.

I construet my churn i'n'the usual tub form. Upon the lid P, I attachthe frameworklnhich supports the large cogor drivo-wheel-A with thesmall cogwheels B G, rod D,. and tube E, flanged wheel H, thimble G, andflangedwheel H I passthe rod D through the thimble F, in such a mannerthat thocog-wheel B will rest upon the top of the framerv'ork'J,while'the 'c'og wheel is held in position by means of the end of thetube E resting upon the thimble G, rrhich is heldin place by meansof thekey I, which passes through the thimble G and rod D. Upon the tube E, Iattach two or more flanges; set at such an angle as to carry the airthrough the cream upon the thimble G. I also attach two or more flangesfor the purposeof carrying the air throughout the cream. These flangesor wheels are made of zinc, wood, or other suitable material.

The object of myiin vention' is'to giveto the flong'edwheels anjoppositeor counter-revolving motion, which is done by means of the large cog ordrive-ivhecl A, when operated by the crank, K,'Wl1il6 the flanged wheelshave their flanges set in such an angle, as to carry air into every partof the churn, while the rapid counterlnotion breaks the globules, thushastening butter-making.

What I claim asmy invention; and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-'The combination of the flanged wheels H H, thimble G,l ey I, tube E,rod D, frame J, drive-wheel A, and cog-wheels B 0, arranged and operatedsubstantially as described. I I
